Austin 1800 – Engineering Analysis

As you can tell from one of my pages I like the Austin 1800. Back when I owned one I was trawling through the engineering library at Sydney University and came across the journal Automobile Engineer from the 50’s and 60’s. I have the article from Automobile Engineer on Hydrolastic Springing here. But the great find was a three part analysis of the Austin 1800 (ADO17). It started in December 1964 and was concluded in February 1965. It is a fantastic read for anyone into the Austin 1800, or a taste for fine engineering.
